We go again Seoul -> Tokyo

Escape - great film Busy roads followed by peaceful bike lanes

Wet 🧽 Early start to beat the all-day rain

This almost felt too pleasent for bikepacking

Komoot giveth and komoot taketh away.... enjoyable night ride to make up some k's. Flight to Fukuoka booked

Touch down in Busan. Our journey across South Korea comes to an end.

Busan -> Fukuoka 🛩 A relatively pleasent city ride, though progress was painfully slow. We never really figured out where Fukuoka ended - it felt like an endless stretch of urban life to our monkey infested camp spot. Hoping for some faster roads tomorrow to make up some Ks.

This was one of those perfect routes where you want to stop and take a photo every few minutes. Finished the day in a scenic seaside guest house and onsen.

Coastal roads 🌊 Sand dunes⏳️ Tunnels 💀

Alpine-style descents, with stretches that felt like the Pyrenees—only with a distinct Japanese flair

Morning in a forest, matcha in Kyoto, dinner in Osaka. Today was a good day.

Tough day in the office after a late night in Osaka

Hungry start to the day, but the scenery was a welcome distraction. Soaking up every moment of riding as we head into our final few days

That was turd.

Penultimate day of cycling featuring Mt. Fuji, fingers crossed for one more glimpse tomorrow

And that’s a wrap — about 2000km from Seoul to Tokyo in 16 days on the bike. Crazy to think all that nature sits right on Tokyo’s doorstep, bound by mountains, and just a short ride or drive away. The contrast with this bright, sprawling mega-city is pretty surreal. Cracking route overall
